I know that I'll get a lot of hate for this post because a lot of people love the fight but I really think most of them have statics.
Adds in Party Finder is an absoutley miserable experience and I cannot believe this was the intended tuning. I'm a DNC who is fully pentamelded with my tome pieces for each week so this isn't a gear issue or anything like that.
I have progged multiple Ultimates in PF (FRU, TEA, DSR) and M6s has taken me longer than TEA so far and I've been stuck on 2% enrage for days. Melee won't single target the Manta or the Jabba going for all the cleave or when they do they forget the Mu's which then explode. Healers won't hit the cat while ranged are baiting and hitting their rays and guess what? "MEOW YOU'VE DONE IT!" Tanks die due to lack of healing and running out of mitigation and in 740 gear the demon Yan's just murder without some healer TLC.
The dps check is beyond reach for a lot of pug groups progging right now (going in with a single weakness is a wipe) and consistent people are getting burnt out because party after party they are stuck with people who meme adds. Which is especially maddening when they themselves are clean and do their part correctly.
I don't think the aim was to create a fight that is almost undoable in Party Finder. I have friends who have spent days trying to reclear after getting lucky week 1 and having no luck.
Overall this fight is great once again if you have a static. But if not it's so horrible that I'm getting burnt out already. FRU was easier to PF and that was notorious for being a mess to pug because of inconsistency
Please Square when considering fight design think of the average PF player since not everyone can static.
Even for someone like myself who has cleared 3 ultimates and 4 savage tiers this fight is the most awful experience I've ever had in PF. It's not fun at all. It's overtunned for min ilvl.
Once again I know I'll get hate but I'm so frustrated.
P.S. Just want to add that I'm all for interesting mechanics and hard dps checks. I love the tuning of M5s and think FRU should have had a harder dps check but this isn't doable with 8 people with 0 communication and various skill levels.
